PENFIELD PRESBYTERIAN
EARLY LEARNING CENTER
High quality, developmentally appropriate,
affordable child care in a safe, nurturing environment!
OUR COMMITMENT
The Penfield Presbyterian Early Learning Center is the outgrowth of
the mission and community concerns of the Penfield Presbyterian Church.
We believe that children have a right to be actively cared for by dedicated,
well-trained professionals; to be provided with the best possible environmental conditions and materials with which to explore and play; and to be valued as a unique individual. Aligned with our mission statement and beliefs, our goals are:
-
To meet the social, emotional, physical and intellectual needs of each child in our care
-
To provide safe opportunities for both active and quiet play throughout the day
-
To develop and foster positive and productive habits in each child
-
To work in partnership with each child's family
-
To be in compliance with all regulations

CREATIVE KIDS
YOGA
Creative Kids comes to PPELC to teach
yoga classes for our toddler and preschool ages
Tuesdays 8:45-10:15 starting back in September 2025
Practicing yoga helps a child improve his or her strength, flexibility, and overall balance. Through yoga, children learn how to use their bodies in beneficial, safe and fun new ways!​

MUSIC MAKERS
Fostering Creativity, Connection, and Joy​
COMING THIS FALL!
​Through Music Makers, kids will learn new songs,
sing as a group, try multiple new instruments, and dance.
Music is vital for children's development, impacting cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth.
It enhances brain development, language acquisition, memory, and mathematical skills.
